ABSTRACT:
An axial flow turbine, whose outlet rotor blades (12) are followed by a diffuser (13), has first means (8) within the retardation zone of the diffuser for swirl removal from the swirling flow.
A row with adjustable guide vanes (11) is arranged between these first means for swirl removal in the form of aerodynamic ribs and the outlet rotor blades. These guide vanes (11) have a straight mean camber line with a symmetrical aerofoil section, are conically shaped in the radial direction and are twisted.
In addition to a substantial improvement in the pressure recovery over a wide load range, this measure also permits the vortex usually occurring between the rotor blades and the aerodynamic ribs to be prevented.
